[PATCH 0000/0005] Staging: hv: storvsc cleanup

From: K. Y. Srinivasan
Date: Thu Dec 01 2011 - 07:58:32 EST


Cleanup storvsc driver based on review comments from James.

1) While the existing per (virtual) HBA memory pools mechanism
does address the deadlock issues raised earlier since for IDE
devices there is a HBA per device and presently only IDE devices
can be drain devices, here we implement a generic per-LUN memory
pools mechanism.

2) Fix a couple of bugs in the bounce buffer handling code (now that I
have been able to trigger these code paths!)

3) Cleanup some unnecessary code.

With this, I believe I have addressed all of the review comments I have received
on this driver. I will submit a separate patch for moving the driver out of staging
(that includes these patches).


Regards,

K. Y
